Virto Posted August 11, 2006 Share #4 Posted August 11, 2006 Tad bit out of my price range for sure. In fact, to fit my budget, someone would have to be offering one free, bring it to me and install it.Of course I'd have a new friend and provide plenty of beer to consume...hmmm...

Will You misunderstand...I can't really afford either, but beer is easier to sneak past the little lady. Even if I needed a few kegs, I could pass that off as a "party expense."

hls30.com Posted August 11, 2006 Share #9 Posted August 11, 2006 I understand, Beer is the Primary Lubricant! It is a good thing the car won't run on it, imagine how much it would be!WIll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomoHawk Posted August 11, 2006 Share #10 Posted August 11, 2006 Up til about 1997, I used to think of beer as "The official currency of the .U.S.A."LOL You could go to a ball game ( any kind- football, basebal, BB, tennis...) and get a beer for $1.25? and now (at the Jac in Cleveland, OH) it's $4!?? If you needed a favour, you first bought a six-pack, invited your buddy, then negotiated the rest while you worked ( and drank!) And imported beer was something "extra valuable.":p Back then you could even buy Bud, Miller, etc. oversees! PrOxLaMuS- I think the newer auto trans from a diesel Maxima could probably handle a turbo. Except nobody knows how to put one in a Z with all the electronic control stuff. (Will?)
